Those messages are only broadcast if you happen to send a message to the board cause people have autoresponders set. Given that there are only two and now one bad address returning a message, I find it fairly easy to just hit the delete button three times. I don't think this qualifies as spam.
It's not spam per-se, but these addresses obviously should not be on the list. AND If you try to respond, the mailboxes are full, so there's no way to contact the users themselves. I see it as spam because it's wasting lots of bandwidth. Just think of the number of messages on this board....times 3. Going out all over the place. That's a lot of wasted bandwidth and "deleting time". IMHO, the php list admins should just delete them, but none of them EVER respond to requests for this.
So, as I hit the send button, I know I'll have 3 messages to delete in a few
seconds. No big deal...

Subject: [PHP] Spammers
Hey everyone, don't know about you, but I'm sick of spam and so I've reported the spammers to their ISP ipowerweb.com I've sent them the headers and traceroute results and their abuse team is investigating, it would be more powerful if a bunch of people complained about it, so if you have a minute and are sick of the garbage from suisse bank and information desk, send a quick email to the ISP. They should be shut down.
Last resort If this doesn't work, I have a few buddies that would love to try out their DOS attack skills, but I'd rather deal with it legally.
